By Nick Triggle Health correspondent
NHS trusts in England have racked up a £930m deficit in the first three months of the financial year - that is more than the entire overspend last year.
Regulators said the problems were the "worst for a generation" and demanded immediate action be taken.
The scale of the deficits - eight in 10 trusts are in the red - also prompted warnings that care would suffer.
